Signing your name on the digital signature market: A global prespective

Digital signatures are used to demonstrate the authenticity of an electronic message. The following reports take a closer look at the digital signature market and where it’s headed.

Digital signatures are commonly used in cryptographic protocols involving software distribution, financial transactions and contract management solutions. Like regular signatures, they play an important role in protecting against forgery and tampering. While not fool-proof by any means, a digital signature instills trust in the recipient, telling him or her that the message was created and sent by an authorized, known user.

By definition, a digital signature consists of three components: a key generation algorithm that creates a private key consisting of random characters; a signing algorithm that produces a digital signature; and a signature verifying algorithm that processes the message, public key and digital signature to determine whether it’s valid or invalid.

Some of the most common digital signature algorithms include RSA-PSS, DSA, ECDSA, Edwards-curve Digital Signature Algorithm, Rabin signature algorithm, BLS and pairing-based algorithms. While each of these algorithms has its own unique properties, they all work on the same basic principle: to create a secure connection by binding an electronic identify to an electronic document.

The Global Digital Signature Sales Market Report 2017 report by The Market Reports is a comprehensive study of the global digital signatures market. Featuring 119 pages while covering both current and future prospective scenarios, it offers an in-depth look at the market. Among other things, this report reveals the digital signature market’s trends, growth drivers, challenges, price, revenue, import and export consumption and more. In essence, it’s a strategic and detailed analysis of the global digital signature market.

The Global Digital Signature Market Research Report 2017 report by The Market Reports is a second professional analysis of the global digital signature market. It covers much of the information listed in the first report, including trends, competitive landscape, key vendors, cost, price, revenue, growth drivers, challenges and more.

There are two primary market segments explored in this report: on-premises and cloud. On-premises digital signatures involves the use of local hardware to collect and process signatures, whereas cloud-based signatures involves the use of remote hardware that’s “on the cloud” to collect and process signatures.

Whether you work in the digital signature market or are thinking about investing in the technology, you should consider accessing these reports. They provide invaluable information that can help you make better decisions in either of these areas.
